Just done right-click / save-as and it's showing as 90kb on my disk

PS: you can link direct to the photobucket, rather than upload you know

If you go into the picture on your PC. Right click, edit, you can then alter the size using Paint or smiliar. I normally use Stretch and Skew.

Would do it for you mate but my work PC hasn't got Paint.

that image is 95954bytes.

You can do as frog says.

or use photoshop and use the save for web option and then optimise the image to reduce the filesize and ultimately image quality.

something tells me i shouldnt be doing it,

ive reduced size

size 316 KB (323,840 bytes) and its still saying

Image Upload Threshold

The Upload Of The Image Failed Because Its Size Was Greater Than That Allowed By The Administrator. Please Try Upload The Image Again With A Smaller Filesize.

If You Were Creating/Editing A New Vehicle/Modification/Quartermile Time/Rollingroad Run It Will Still Have Worked, However The Image Will Not Be Attached To It
